I used to drink a fair amount of pop. I mean, not excessive amounts, but more than I do now. In all my years on earth, I've absolutely never ever able to enjoy diet soft drinks. The aftertaste is just absolutely disgusting and the entire flavor of the drink is ruined.

I actually like artificial sweetener in my coffee because coffee already has a very bitter and strong aftertaste. So artificial sweeteners are not as noticeable. But with soft drinks it just completely takes over and makes everything absolutely disgusting.

I didn't like sparkling water at first, but over the years I've come to really enjoy it and I drink it far more than I do soft drinks. I'd pick a sparkling water over a diet soft drink 1000000%.

I love it, and for anyone else who does, I have a suggestion.

Get a SodaStream (or whatever your carbonator-of-choice is) and a cheap adapter to run it from a standard CO2 tank. Not only do you save money on CO2 refills, but you save money on buying cans of seltzer, too. The concentrated flavor additives are only a few dollars at the grocery store.

I think my SodaStream was something like $100. The adapter and hoses were $50-ish. The flavor syrup costs around $5 for enough to make gallons. Every few months or more, I might pay $50 or so to refill a 20lb CO2 tank. It's already paid for itself, and it's incredibly convenient.

I can’t get into it. It makes me crave plain water more than anything.

Lime La Croix got me off soda. Just a heads up - carbonation is slightly acidic. Throw in natural flavor like lemon or lime, and youve got even more acidity. Just saying, don't do what I did and drink 2-3 per day without a meal. I've had to get 5 fillings in the past year. Not attributing it directly to my La Croix habit (I also only brushed in the morning and never flossed, not anymore!) - but I did find some stuff online that hinted the acidity of these drinks can run your teeth down. Maybe not that much, but it sure doesn't help.

I prefer Bubly and Waterloo. They're more flavorful, while still being sweetener-free.

Like others, I used to hate it and drank a lot of soda. Now, I've dropped soda and love lacroix as an alternative. Although, there are better brands (Waterloo).

The lemoncello flavor is my favorite.

Yummy. Good soda substitute. Different flavors appeal to different people so if you don’t like one, try another.

Other brands are hit or miss as many of their flavorings taste “fake”.

Disgusting.

It's like someone took the perfect beverage {water} and decided to soak a used sock in it before attempting to hide this heinous blunder with a big squeeze of random flavorings.

Cromulent

Mojito time! Minty lime goodness just in time for the new year. This is one of my favorites.

It all depends on the flavor really. Some are done better by Bubbly (mango). I like Soleil's Blood Orange out of all the citrus ones.

Some flavors are better than others. Bubbly makes a comparable regular lime, but La Croix has the best key lime which I prefer.

I love it. It’s my substitute for soda. I like lemon and cherry lime. My family got some for me when I came over for the holidays and they didn’t care for it. Lol

They're alright, decent bang for the buck. If you need to quit soda like me, they help.

It's the vape pen of the soda world!

They have my permission to use this, heh.

Loves me some

Haven't had, I don't know where she lives, but definitely very hot.

I love them in the summer. They are refreshing.

I really like tacking a pack of la Croix (or kombutcha) to a party or BBQ. I can chug through them like beer and be a responsible human at the end of the event. That no calorie and not artificial shit is a big big plus

It's ok, but I prefer Spindrift.

Honestly all brands of seltzer are equal, even cheap ones. And I really like seltzer. I just get whatever is cheapest.

La Croix is fine, got a bunch from my boss after a party of his. It's very unexceptional

Haven't had La Croix, but in general I love carbonated water. It's quite possible I drink more sparkling water than I drink tap water because my tap just tastes yucky for some reason.

Not the best tasting thing in the world but like a lot of people said it’s a good substitute for soda and it usually hits my cravings (but sometimes I decide to mix some sorta drink powder into it turning it back into a pseudo-soda)

They're fine. I keep some stocked in the fridge because friends like them.

They're all literally the same damn thing. They all just taste like flavored seltzer to me.

I enjoy a Lacroix depending on the flavor- Passionfruit is my favorite. The top tie, first round pick for sparkling water in my book is Topo Chico. Add a little bit of lime juice and a splash from a ginger bug on the rocks and you have a spicy treat

Spicy water

It’s fine but I make my own

It’s good, prefer lime and pamplemousse

I need the fizzy water
